The present invention aims at closing a receptacle (1) provided with an opening (2) as tightly as possible while keeping low the amount of material required for a closure (3) used for this purpose. To this end, a tool (10) is suggested that closes the opening (2) of the receptacle (1) by means of the closure (3). The tool (10) comprises a tool plate (12) configured such that it is adapted to be introduced into the opening (2) of the receptacle (1). The tool further comprises at least one roll (11) that is arranged on the tool plate (12). The at least one roll (11) is adapted to be deflected radially outwards from a starting position into a closing position and returns to its starting position, so that a radial force can be caused to act on a closure rim (4) of the closure (3) for a limited period of time, the closure rim (4) being arranged between the at least one roll (11) and the receptacle inner side (5).

The present application also discloses a transfer station for transferring a container and several methods.

The present invention has an object of providing a seaming device that can prevent the leakage of a lubricating oil from the in-machine housing of a chuck unit into a seaming operation space, prevent the occurrence of a defective product contaminated by the lubricating oil, and eliminate heat elongation due to heat generation to accurately maintain a seaming dimension. Provided is a seaming device (100) including: a chuck unit (320) that positions a lid (F) mounted on a can C; and a seaming unit (410) that seams the lid to the can, wherein the chuck unit has a spindle (325) having a chuck (321) for positioning the lid attached at a lower end thereof, a bearing (326) that rotatably supports the spindle, and a non-contact type oil seal mechanism for sealing between the spindle and the in-machine housing at a position below the bearing.

A polymer vial with a tubular body having a geometric shape including (i) a neck having an opening orifice, and (ii) a closed base formed by flattening and sealing a bottom edge of the tubular body. The vial will also include a snap off cap integrally formed on the neck and a liquid content contained in the tubular body. A plurality of dosage lines are printed on the tubular body, the dosage lines having a non-uniform spacing corresponding to the variable volume per unit length of the vial geometric shape. Each line corresponds to a dosage volume of the liquid content when the opening orifice is oriented in the vertically upward position.

A plant (1) for filling and closing cans (2) under hygienic conditions which comprises a hygienic compartment (3), a lid applying device (7) and an inlet (30) for a filling material. The lid applying device (7) is arranged in the hygienic compartment (3) and the inlet (30) is formed on the hygienic compartment (3). When used as intended, one or more cans (2) can be assigned to the hygienic compartment (3) and the hygienic compartment (3) can be moved together with the can(s) (2) in the system (1).

The present invention relates to the technical field of packaging technology. One or a plurality of membranes is to be sealingly attached to an inner surface of a container making use of a small number of working steps. For this purpose, a tool comprising a force transmission unit (10), a deflection unit (20) and a positioning element (30) is suggested. The force transmission unit (10) is coupled to the deflection unit (20) and the positioning element (30), so that a force can be transmitted from the force transmission unit (10) to the deflection unit (20) and/or the positioning element (30). At least a portion of the deflection unit (20) is deflectable with a radial component. The positioning element (30) is adapted to allow a flow of gas therethrough, so as to pick up and hold the membrane (33).

A multi-chambered shot glass for storing and transporting multiple liquids for consumption or mixing at a time after the chambers have been filled includes a first body portion comprising a first chamber and a second chamber, the first chamber and the second chamber separated by an inner partition. The first chamber has a first aperture configured to form a fixed first chamber rim and a seal covering the first aperture. The second chamber includes a second aperture configured to form a second chamber rim. A second body portion having a fixed third chamber includes a third aperture. The fixed third chamber is configured for insertion into the second chamber such that the third chamber engages the second chamber in a fluid sealed configuration.

A sealed pharmaceutical container comprises a shoulder, a neck extending from the shoulder, and a flange extending from the neck. The flange comprises an outer surface extending from the underside surface and a contact surface extending between the outer surface and an inner surface defining an opening in the sealed pharmaceutical container. The contact surface comprises an outer peripheral edge disposed proximate to the outer surface of the flange. The sealed pharmaceutical container comprises a sealing assembly comprising a stopper extending over the contact surface of the flange and covering the opening, and a cap securing the stopper to the flange. The stopper comprises a sealing surface that is secured in contact with the contact surface of the flange to form a seal between the flange and the stopper. An outer peripheral edge of the sealing surface is disposed at or radially inward of the outer peripheral edge.

A packaging device for packaging material includes: a carry-in conveyor configured to carry in a food container along a conveyance direction; a carry-out conveyor configured to carry out the food container along the conveyance direction; a conveyor moving mechanism configured to move at least one of the carry-in conveyor or the carry-out conveyor; a packaging material pressing mechanism configured to press a band-shaped packaging material against the food container conveyed between the carry-in conveyor and the carry-out conveyor and to attach the band-shaped packaging material to the food container; and a control device configured to cause the conveyor moving mechanism to move at least one of the carry-in conveyor or the carry-out conveyor to thereby form an attachment space between the carry-in conveyor and the carry-out conveyor where the packaging material pressing mechanism attaches the band-shaped packaging material to the food container.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a detection device that detects the occurrence of an event (so-called “double capping”) in which two caps are disposed on one container. To that end, the detection device (10, 10A) of the present invention has two types of sensors provided on a production line (100) for a commercial product in which an opening (1A) of a container (1) is sealed with a cap (2), said sensors being a proximity sensor (3) along a path where the container (1) moves and a sensor (4: for example, a transmission sensor) equipped with a transmitter (4A), which is inside the same path, and a receiver (4B). An area detected by the sensors (3, 4) is an area where the cap (2) is not present in a normal state (a state in which double capping has not occurred), but where a subsequent cap (2-1) is present if two caps (2) in a row have been attached to one container (1).
